It was purely an accident that Grandma Xue appeared here, because she was probably one of the people in Jinling who paid the most attention to Lu Renxing's news, so even if Lu Renxing changed his appearance, she still found her whereabouts.As for the officers and soldiers appearing later, she was completely passive and unaware.

Seeing that Lu Renxing was really about to run, she became anxious, and finally captured this man, according to the rules of the world, he should be killed, and his head was used to pay homage to the dead in the cottage.It's just that she kept in mind what Xue Pan said to her, and when she went down the mountain, she was no longer a thief, she was a decent citizen of the Qing Dynasty, and she could no longer act according to the rules of the cottage.

Since she had to abide by the laws of the Qing Dynasty, she couldn't lynch Lu Renxing. In the end, she chose to tie people up and hand them over to the government.

The person hiding in the dark wiped off his sweat and murmured, "There is no big deviation at all."

"Withdraw." After Lu Renxing was taken to the Yamen of the Infantry Commander, the figures of the two disappeared without a trace.

After Hongxiang was rescued, he was really frightened and burned up that day.Master Jiu lost his temper very rarely, "It's so good, why did you get involved with that kind of person, I don't have time to dawdle with you, so hurry up and tell me."

Shu Fujin shrank his body, weeping like water flooding a golden mountain, he was crying so hard, but he didn't feel ugly, but added a soft smell, which made people love him.

"Don't cry, you don't understand how dangerous this place is, hurry up and tell the truth, so that I can make amends." Facing Shu Fujin, whom he had loved for many years, he suppressed his anger a little.

"Master, although my concubine is Hongxiang's mother-in-law, but he is so old and has been doing business with him, how dare I, a woman, ask about your men. I really don't know, but I know that Hongxiang must He was lied to, he couldn't have gotten involved with Jiang Yang's bandit." Shu Fujin didn't dare to hide it, she really didn't know.

"Where is the person who served by his side that day, hurry up and find me." Jiu Ye pressed his bulging temple, always feeling that if this matter is not handled properly, there will be endless troubles.

"Xiao Kuizi was the one who went out with brother Hongxiang. He went out with him that day, but didn't follow him back." The manager came to report the news with a mournful face, and guessed whether this kid was beaten to death by Lu Renxing at that time.

"When someone dies, there will always be a body. How could the yamen, the commander of the infantry, come to the door to inform you. No, you should go and ask about this, and find out what's going on with this little Kuizi." Master Jiu's temples twitched more and more incredible.

The reply from the Yamen Commander of the Infantry Army was very official. When they arrived, they didn't see any Xiao Kuizi, and when they cleaned up the scene, they didn't find any dead bodies.They are in a mess, and there is no time to take care of the steward of Jiu Ye's house.Because, Lu Renxing spoke up.

This opening, the words are astonishing, the interrogator was so frightened that he wished he could be deaf at the time.Tremblingly, he reported to Long Kedo, and seeing that the adult was calm and composed, he barely suppressed his beating heartbeat.

All the news was sent to Lin Ruhai's study in an orderly manner, and he stored them in his mind one by one. Anything with a little ink stain was thrown into the brazier and burned up.

At this moment, Daiyu came in with the soup that Mammy Mei had stewed. Seeing that the brazier under her father's feet was still hot, she slowly poured out the soup and put it into a bowl.

"Father, it's dry in autumn. It's for getting rid of dryness and invigorating Qi. You should drink more." Daiyu handed over the bowl, and sat stubbornly opposite him, refusing to leave.

Lin Ruhai laughed after drinking the soup, "You girl, you look like your mother on the surface, gentle and gentle, and you seem to listen to what others say. In fact, you are exactly the same as our Lin family in your heart. What you believe in, Never give up on anything.”

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, "Father doesn't think so?"

"Okay, why not? As the Lin family, that's how it should be." Lin Ruhai laughed. It would be great if his daughter and son could be separated. This is not the first time he thinks so, and it's not all because of It can glorify the lintel of the Lin family.But if the daughter changed her personality, she might be able to live a better life.

"Okay, this matter is a clever word after all." Lin Ruhai couldn't help it, knowing that if she didn't tell the truth today, her daughter would not leave.

It is indeed necessary to start with a clever word. General Nian has a lieutenant general who fought all the way up, and he has a blood feud with Lu Renxing.He was unable to take revenge back then, so he held his breath and joined the army.When the fight is over, Lu Renxing will become a thorn in his heart, which must be pulled out.

But it is impossible for people stationed outside to wander around, so he spent money to invite experts in the rivers and lakes to arrest Lu Renxing, and then sent him to the government office to give him a canonical punishment.

Lu Renxing's martial arts is not top-notch, but he has a lot of eyes.Hiding all the way, he was finally forced to near Jinling.The expert thought that he would never dare to enter Jinling City, so he just laid a net outside and waited for the net to be successfully collected.

As a result, Lu Renxing jumped over the wall in a hurry and was forced into Jinling City.The master had no choice but to take the letter that the lieutenant had given him before he left, just in case, and went into Prince Yong's mansion.

"So, Xia Jingui will find him, is it designed?" Daiyu asked suddenly.

"That's not true. Why do you say it's a coincidence for the father? It's another coincidence."

Lu Renxing is very good at hiding, and as soon as he entered Jinling City, he pretended to be a gangster on the street.And Xia Jingui's confidant just came out to find someone, caught him with a glance, and brought him in front of Xia Jingui.

"Then, did father know what Xia Jingui wanted to do with him?" Daiyu's heart was beating violently, and she didn't want to believe the result of her guess.

Lin Ruhai was angry and funny, "What kind of person do you think your father is? Xia Jingui's secret talks with him are all in places where men are inconvenient. If you and Shan's hadn't exposed her truth that day, we wouldn't have known she had found him." Lu Renxing does such lowly things."

As soon as Sun Shaozu died, the master would tell Prince Yong that it was impossible for Lu Renxing to become a beauty in anger, let alone kill people without reason.He usually has only one reason for killing people, and that is for money.

Who would pay for the life of a rotten person like Sun Shaozu? He is worthless.This kind of thing is easy to guess in the eyes of people who are used to the world.Xia Jingui is simply the most suspicious object, not one of them.Coupled with the fact that she stayed behind closed doors and declined everyone's visits, it was even more suspicious.

"We're sure he's hiding in Xia Jingui's yard. In this way, Jiang Yang's bandit, Xia Jingui, and brother Jiu are like a thread. If you don't do anything, how can you be worthy of their quarrels so many years ago?" Lin Ruhai snorted coldly, Make a decision and then move, or don't move, and you will never turn over again if you move.The eighth elder brother claims to be a virtuous king, but he is still a little bit less.The constant small moves, apart from provoking the emperor's dislike, did not achieve much effect.

"But, how can you be sure that Lu Renxing will be tempted." What kind of self-confidence does a Jiangyang thief think that he can be accepted by an elder brother.You can also participate in such major events to cleanse yourself.

Lin Ruhai smiled and stroked the beard on his chin, "Lu Renxing is his nickname. His surname is Jin. His ancestor was a famous general who opened up the frontiers of the Qing Dynasty. Unfortunately, his descendants failed to live up to the expectations and suffered a terrible decline. Now that he is here One generation, even mixed into the rivers and lakes, so I dare not use my real surname anymore."

Only then did Daiyu understand that no matter how a person with this kind of background falls into the grass, the thoughts in his heart are different from those of ordinary Jiangyang thieves.He wanted to restore the glory of his ancestors even in his dreams, and he would not let go of even the slightest chance.Now that the opportunity is presented to him, how could he miss it.

If he can help Brother Jiu, he can transform himself from the rivers and lakes into the court.It's a good plan, but it's a pity that the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.With people like Lin Ruhai and Prince Yong scheming behind him, no matter how thoughtful he is, he can't figure it out.

"Master, the leader of the infantry, Jiemen, has already gone to Xia's house to arrest Xia Jingui and bring him to justice. Master Longkodo went to the palace to face the saint, but he hasn't come out yet." Steward Leng told Lin Ruhai's consent through the door, and gave the latest news.

Xia Jingui's home will find the letter "handwritten" by Hongxiang, and Hongxiang should still have the 5 taels of bank notes.The most important thing is that when Lu Renxing fell into the government office, he knew that he was in a life-threatening lawsuit and could not survive. According to the character of this type of person, he wished to drag everyone he knew or not into the water to accompany him to die.

Lin Ruhai flicked her fingers slightly, and finally said, "It's time to fire."

Then he took out a small wooden box from a hidden compartment of the bookcase and took out a letter.Called Steward Leng to come in, "Send it to Tiezui Yushi, make sure he takes it with his own hands."

"Yes." Steward Leng picked up the letter, turned around and left.

Daiyu could see clearly that this wooden box and this letter were exactly the one in Shi Xiangyun's hand.It had already fallen into the hands of her father, and she was still wondering why there was no movement. It turned out that her father had been waiting until one was suitable and lethal enough before throwing it out. He was really patient and a good city.

"It's okay, the rest has nothing to do with us." Lin Ruhai smiled lightly. A real master was never a hot-blooded young man standing at the front desk and kowtowing to others, let alone a soldier who dragged himself into the whirlpool.It's the one who stands behind the scenes, manipulating the invisible thread that connects all the pieces together.

When the fragments are successfully connected, they will retire, listening to the fallen flowers and lying drunk on the hibiscus. What they want is to pass through the flowers without touching their bodies with ease and ease.

Daiyu finally knew the gap between herself and her father, as if separated by a Milky Way.She listened to so much sex, and took the empty bowl back contentedly.

The court hall on the second day was indeed unprecedentedly lively. The censor, known as the iron mouth, impeached Brother Jiu for colluding with the beheaded Wei family.He intended to provocatively connect with the courtiers to make the eighth elder brother the prince, and even offered conditions and lures.Submit a letter as evidence.

Longkodo asked Hongxiang to go to the yamen to assist Lu Ren to do something. His identity is naturally different from that of a little censor, and his words are also resounding.

"After all, Lu Ren Xingzhao's confession cannot be fully believed, but Elder Brother and Yiqianyi walked into the box at that time, and when the waiter served the food, they saw them chatting. This was something that everyone in the restaurant saw with their own eyes. It is better for the parties involved to solve the misunderstanding." Longkodo didn't mention the letter in Xia Jingui's hand, let alone the 5 taels of silver.

Brother Jiu's forehead was covered with sweat, and he kicked Hongxiang out of bed when he returned home, "Sleep, sleep, sleep, if something happens, I will sleep, and wait for me to clean up for you. What did you do, old man?" Tell me the truth again, if you hide a single word, don't blame me for not saving you."

Waiting outside was the commander of the infantry. They were not here to detain people, but to invite them. Brother Jiu sent someone to delay, and hurried to the back to pick up his son and question him again.

"My son has said everything, and I dare not hide a single word." Hongxiang was wronged, didn't he just ask a merchant woman to give him some money to spend?Why did such a big incident happen, the person was sent by Xia Jingui, ask her, what does it have to do with me.

He concealed the matter of the 5 taels of silver bills. The money was not easy to come by. If he handed it over, he would have nothing to do.It is not a big deal for Hongxiang to go to the infantry to lead the yamen.Don't tell me it's over?Can still detain him.

"That's what you said." Brother Jiu paused every word, staring at his son for a long time, Hongxiang who looked straight at him felt hairy.

"My son dare not hide it." Hongxiang answered bravely.

"Then you go." Brother Nine's gaze was terribly cold, and he waved him out.

Hongxiang went to the Yamen of the Infantry Commander with others, and saw Longkodo as soon as he came up. He was surprised at first, and then overjoyed.He stepped forward to salute and said, "Uncle, why do you have to work on such a trivial matter, it has become Hongxiang's unfilial piety."

Longkodo is the younger brother of Empress Xiaoyiren, and this empress is deeply loved by the current emperor.He also entrusted this uncle of the country with a heavy responsibility and took the post of commander of the infantry. Back then, even the crown prince treated him kindly.Not to mention the current princes and grandsons who have no errands, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are flattering.

"Brother, you're welcome, you're welcome." Long Keduo smiled but didn't smile, seeing his reminiscence, he felt relieved.

When a letter was thrown down, the stunned people's legs softened and their voices changed.

The 5 taels of bank notes on his body were also searched, which happened to match what Lu Renxing and Xia Jingui said.Longkodo sneered at Hongxiang, who was limp and slumped into a ball, not forgetting to scream that he had wronged him.

Wronged?Maybe, maybe this incident was wronged, maybe that incident was also wronged, but Brother Nine's eagerness to give Brother Eight a superior position is not wronged.Everyone knows what Brother Nine thinks, what is lacking is evidence on the surface.

What does it matter if the evidence is true or false?

The point is, is the emperor willing to believe it?

If the emperor is willing to believe it, then it is true; if the emperor is unwilling to believe it, then it is false.Look, how simple and easy to understand.

"Master, Elder Brother, Elder Brother was kept by them, stayed." It was originally withheld, but it was changed to stay when the words came to my lips. The manager was sweating, and he couldn't see Hongxiang even though he stuffed the money. Elder brother, knowing that the big thing is not good, hurry back to the house to report.

"He..." Brother Nine's throat seemed to be strangled by something, his figure flickered, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Everyone in the Ninth Brother's house was turned on their backs, only Shu Fujin kept asking the steward, "Why did they keep Hongxiang, why did they do this, he is, he is the elder brother, the emperor's grandson."

The manager was in a hurry, "You can only ask the master about this matter, how would the slave know."

How can outsiders care about the ups and downs in Jiu Age's house, just because Lu Renxing's alarm was lifted, many family members began to go out, for guests, for banquets, for one-hundred-day birthdays, for birthdays and funerals, for marriages For those who are married, as long as they want to go out, there are seats for 360 days a year, every day.

Today is a visit to Tian's house, with Wen Ruyan around, Wulan Gege and Grandma Xue must be there.

Ulan told Daiyu and Grandma Xue enthusiastically, "My brother bought the Osmanthus osmanthus forest in Xia's family. When it gets better, we can also hold an osmanthus feast."

"The Xia family has collapsed like this." Grandma Xue is still a little dazed and can't believe it.

"That's right, it's so difficult to build a Xia family. If you do one thing wrong, you will fall down." Daiyu was very calm, and even Brother Jiu couldn't get out of this kind of thing, let alone Not to mention the Xia family, a merchant.The identity of the Xia family's royal merchant was gone, and he was sentenced to be cut in half for colluding with Jiangyang bandits to kill Sun Shaozu.

Lu Renxing was beheaded together with Xia Jingui. It is said that Xia Jingui crawled a few steps after being cut in half, and opened his mouth to bite off a piece of meat from Lu Renxing's face.

Ulan covered her mouth tightly when she heard this, wanting to hear but also scared, she kept asking Grandma Xue, "Really? Really?"

"She's teasing you." Daiyu gave Grandma Xue a look. Ulan was still a child, so she didn't know what to say when she was joking.

Grandma Xue stuck out her tongue, and quickly clarified, "It's fake, I made it up. Xue Pan didn't let me see it, saying that it was dirty eyes."

Regarding what happened to her herself, she held back and said nothing to anyone.

Only when no one is watching in private, she winks at Daiyu quietly, "The method you said is really useful."

Way, what way, Daiyu suddenly thought of Lu Renxing who was tied up, smiled and nodded her forehead, "Of course, I speak from experience."

"What are you whispering, so happy." Wen Ruyan's whole face was shining, she was doing well in her husband's house.The only regret now is that the marriage of my concubine sister Wen Ruyu has not yet been settled. This time, I specially invited my sister to come over for a flower banquet at Tian's house, just to let people see. They are also concubine daughters. This one is different from the other. .

"Say you are a good sister. I see several wives are looking at Ruyu and smiling, as if they like it very much." Daiyu changed the subject with a smile.

"That's right, you know my little sister, apart from being born in the aunt's belly, she is inferior to other people. If not, hum..." Mentioning Wen Ruwan, the Wen family all had the same expressions, wishing to eat her up It's good.

But after all, it didn't work. The wives liked Wen Ruyu, but they didn't like her having such a younger sister.The matter of marriage has never been just such a simple consideration.Wen Ruyu's aunt had already invited the Bodhisattva to have a long meal at home, and she recited scriptures three times a day and made vows.

But it was still useless, the right people would introduce Wen Ruwan's existence.Otherwise, they would have to marry at a low level. The people who were discussing marriage with Wen Ruyu would not have a high family background.Third Grandma Wen made good arrangements for her first son and daughter, but when she came to the concubine's place, she encountered such a big problem that she couldn't make ends meet.

Daiyu could only sigh, as she was unmarried and couldn't help her.As for Jia Min, if she could help, she would have done so long ago.Thinking about it again, the people around Jia Min are not of low status. Unless they are concubines, there is really no suitable one.

Wen Ruyu came over to Daiyu's table to greet them after socializing with the wives. She had a bright personality, and she was able to talk with Ulan and Grandma Xue.

"Don't worry, fate is something like this, come as soon as you say it. After you come, you will feel that all the waiting and anxiety before are worth it." Daiyu really wanted to comfort her, but she regretted it when she said it. Do you sprinkle salt in people's wounds?

"I love to hear what you say, isn't that what it's all about? When I was on the mountain, I was already a big girl, and everyone was urging me to marry and have a baby. Look at me Look in the eyes, as if you won’t be able to marry for a lifetime. Look at it, isn’t fate coming as soon as you say it?” Grandma Xue flicked her sleeves calmly, “So, there will be everything, wait Just wait."

Wen Ruyu chuckled, "Yes, that's the reason, I'm waiting."

"Why don't I find you one, but they are all merchants, so your family probably won't be willing." Grandma Xue used to speak straightforwardly, and she sighed after thinking about it. She has been here for so long, and she knows some rules.

"I'm here for Song Fan Song Fan. If Grandma Xue makes trouble again, I won't follow her." If someone else said this, she would go home angrily.But it was Grandma Xue who said those words, not to mention anything else, at least she really thought so, she didn't have bad intentions, and she didn't mean to ridicule.

"Ulan Gege, let me find it for a while, so you are here." A girl's crisp voice sounded.

Everyone is also used to it. When Ulan Gege appeared outside, someone must have come here to say hello.

They looked up, and a beautiful woman was smiling at Ulan, walking in front of Ulan with big watery eyes.

"Cousin Yilan, I didn't know you would come too." Ulan was very happy. It turned out that Shen Yilan was the niece of Ulan's mother's family.

Knowing that it was Ulan's cousin, everyone greeted each other and invited her to sit down.She sat down and cast a glance at Ulan, "I didn't know you were coming, so I came here on purpose. I told you to come and see me if you had nothing to do, but you didn't want to go, so I had to come out to look for you. How is your mother? How about taking the pills, if they are good, I will send someone to put another box together."

When they talked about housework, Daiyu and the others didn't bother them, and naturally divided into two circles to talk.

Wen Ruyu rested for a while, saw her elder sister winking at her, nodded slightly, and then smiled and drew Daiyu's palm with her finger, "Okay, it's time for a break, I, a monkey, will continue to perform."

Daiyu was heartbroken when she heard that tears were coming from the corners of her eyes, but it was Wen Ruyu who quickly pulled her sleeves, "My good sister, I am already content, my aunt and sister have never given up on me, if I want to die, I'm sorry Are they?"

Why is Wen Ruyu not sour in her heart? For a good marriage, she even hid behind the curtain and took a look at him, her eyebrows were like black ink, and her eyes were as clear as autumn.In the end, because of Wen Ruwan, all the beautiful visions were destroyed at once.

Whenever the aunt showed a trace of impatience, the father dared to marry her at will.Even if she is good, can't she just be obedient?Therefore, with such a aunt and eldest sister, she is already much happier than many people. People should know how to cherish blessings.

Shen Yilan asked in a low-pitched voice, "It must be her younger sister who entered the second elder brother's residence."

Ulan was a little dissatisfied, "Why do you ask this, they were not born by the same aunt, this is recorded under the name of the aunt."

In order to facilitate the marriage, Third Grandma Wen has already recorded Wen Ruyu in her name, just to help her increase her status.

"Didn't I just ask casually? Look at you, why don't I stop asking?" Shen Yilan quickly made Ulan laugh, drinking tea from time to time, secretly looking at Lin Daiyu who was sitting opposite her.

Lin Daiyu also noticed it quickly, raised her eyebrows, and smiled at her.Shen Yilan quickly returned a smile and apologized: "Often I heard elder brother Hongyun talk about my sister, but when I saw him today, I knew he was being clumsy. You are even more beautiful than what he described."

"Miss Shen has won the prize." Daiyu raised the tea in her hand and clinked a cup with her in the air. What the other party said was flawless, and her response was also flawless.
